Re: [T3] 65 Square brakes
Thank you for the info it just verified what I thought I would have to do.
This isn't my first Rodeo. The first engine I ever rebuilt was a 1951 Austin
A40 in 1960. My Mother helped me pull it out of the car. Since then I have
worked on many different vehicles out of economic necessity. But this is my
first VW and it is different!!
